None Without The Other

Beautiful words I can make audible,
Melody with or without the words is what music can give,
In our native language it’s understandable,
Beyond this barrier music thrives.

Like good friends I live with it always,
Without it my life would be very boring,
Full of excitement music gives me in many ways,
Grey rocks of my despair it removes without a string.

The people composing sonatas I relish,
Also musicians playing Mozart I adore with joy,
To be just a humble listener and enlightened I wish,
All of their Esperanto I continuously enjoy.

Music and I would be companions forever,
From Genesis are we one and impossible to sever.
